I was pretty excited to open the mail the other day and find the book Great American Road Trips Scenic Drives.

I live in the midwest and spend most of my time here walking along the Sandy beaches of Lake Michigan and Lake Erie. I have an Amish community close by and like to travel where there are covered bridges and lighthouses and this book offers images of many I have frequented.

The history lover in me appreciates Vicksburg National Military Park. I haven't been to the summit at Katahdin but have enjoyed the breathtaking view of the White Mountains.

I guess if I were to pick a top scenic spot I have not yet seen I would say the redwoods.

A copy of this book was provided by the generosity of Anna Sacca, Senior Publicity Manager with show more FSB Associates show less
